——————-

 

a few years ago an ump was on Toronto radio talking about a dispute with a manager and said he knew he blew the call but so what

 

the radio announcer had a snowflake  meltdown, couldn’t get over the admission of an error and no concern all about it

 

great laughter

 

 

Blowing a call happens. No problem there.  Favoring one team is cheating.

I don't agree. He didn't take any unnecessary shots today. As long as he doesn't, run all you want. 

Wut? HE GOT LUCKY today. Surely you realize that the more often he runs, the probability of him getting hurt increases greatly? It will only be a matter of time before some linebacker, or even worse, some defensive lineman, coming up from behind, cleans his clock.  Finally, obviously, there's NO WAY to guarantee that he won't get hammered/killed/injured.

He got lucky? Not really he either avoided players when he had space but when he was running out of room he'd either go out of bounds or slide.

In addition, blowing a call is human..it happens. We all make mistakes. However,  blowing several in a game should be cause for review and some type of corrective action.

The ump laughed and stated he totally blew the call but couldn’t admit it during the argument and ran the manager out and got him suspended

 

i guess the announcer thought they should go back and replay the game

surprise, surprise.. a ref not calling a fair game.

 

atleast this dude admits it. 

 

The surprise is admitting it. I actually get the “make up call”. Sometimes you blow it and want to even things up. That’s life. But favoring the better team means you should not be allowed to ref at any level. IMO

Absolutely agree, Promo. I was screaming at that. Milano was IN FRONT of the WR and got inside position...whatever happened to both players having a right to the ball?? Yet Zay Jones has two arms wrapped around him on the 5 yard line BEFORE the ball gets there and they do nothing. Jesus H...

He did not get his head around.  That was an easy PI to call.  To be going for the ball you have to look for the ball.

The immutable laws of physics dictate that if he's running down the field, and a defensive player is running toward him, and they collide, the probability of injury is greater (way greater) than JA standing in the pocket and getting sacked. LOL

No - the injuries occur most when a player is held up in the pocket or rolled up on..

Runs DO carry a higher concussion potential.

But the major lower body, arm and shoulder injuries mostly occur in the pocket

With that arm and vision he has to stay a little longer in the pocket and throw it away more

 

as teams realize he wants to run, they will aim for him with undeclared bounties to pay out

Possibly my favorite thing about today’s game is that Allen knew when to slide or step OB, much like Russell Wilson. I hate to see him running so much, but where would we have been without it? We have no effective weapons. In the pocket, lots of bad things can happen too. It’s a lot muddier in there with giants flying around in every direction. I want a clean pocket and accurate decisive throws to open receivers, but until we have that, I think we just have to cringe and hope for the best. 

 

The other thing is, if they have to assign a spy, that should provide other options for the offense.

Where do you back this statement up?

 

why do NFL QB s try to avoid open field hits while running?

 

it isn’t even arguable that scrambling is riskier than being an honest pocket NFL QB

you do know he is a rookie on a not very talented offense

 

For sure, but every time he takes off it’s asking for the end of his career

 

stick it out another second and throw it away if you have to

 

and don’t send him out on naked bootlegs unless its at the one

Refocused, NFL Week 13: Miami Dolphins 21, Buffalo Bills 17 | NFL Analysis | Pro Football Focus

The Miami Dolphins defeated the Buffalo Bills, 21-17, in Week 13 of the 2018 NFL season.
FINAL SCORE

Allen’s off-script performance highlighted his unique talent. He consistently ripped off long runs when he saw a small crease and generated some big plays down the field on scramble drills. Allen thrives when the play breaks down, but he’ll need to learn the nuances of passing schemes to emerge a truly legitimate franchise quarterback. 

 

Relying on Kelvin Benjamin has never consistently paid off for offensive coordinators. He was generally poor again against the Dolphins, struggling to generate separation off the line of scrimmage and failing to win in contested situations. 

 

Jordan Phillips had himself a great revenge game. Despite playing limited snaps, he looked like the best Bills defender on the day. He was solid against the run, making a couple of huge stops that helped get the defense off the field. 

 

Micah Hyde made a couple of big stops in the run game and was even better in coverage. His interception was fantastic, as he effectively baited Tannehill into the throw down the sidelines, then covered the ground and picked it off to give the Bills’ offense a chance.

 

Keys to the Game

 

Buffalo

The vast majority of Buffalo’s offensive production centered around busted plays, scramble drills and Allen keepers. Although the numbers aren’t incredible, the Dolphins’ defensive line made the Bills’ scoring unit one dimensional.
